Re: Still holding

Have you heard back from Amex?  I was also given the 5 day hold on 3/27 but have not received an answer yet.

Re: Still holding

Is this your 1st and 2nd Amex?
Asking cuz I thought you had to wait 30 days from your first "credit" card with them to apply for a second.

I don't think there's a waiting period.  Some on here have gotten 2 for 1 on the same day.  Others get the 5 day hold message.

 

ETA:  I originally got a message that it was pending and to call in.  I called that day and was told that it was on hold for 5 days.  Never heard back so I just called in and was told I was approved and they just needed to verify my information.  First card was approved for $1000.  Second was for $6000!  My biggest SL so far Smiley Happy

Re: Still holding

That's usually one charge and one credit I thought but I guess not. That's awesome for you. Nice limit on the second! Congrats

From what I've been reading on here, the one credit one charge is the way to avoid the 5 day hold on the second app.  I found that out the hard way Smiley Indifferent
